Hi all. Any Philly/South Jersey here?
L-in-NJ replied to Ree224's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I love Dr. Schurict!! He was my surgeon and he is and has been so awesome thought the whole process. I had my surgery in Dec 2013 at Penn. He is very supportive and I highly recommend him. -
I too suffered from PCOS pre-surgery (surgery Dec 2013). I would go sometimes years without a period if I didn't take medication and when I finally would have one it would last at least 2 months. My cycle finally started coming regularly in April of this year and I can now set my clock by it. It comes every 4 weeks as it's supposed to and last about 3-5 days. I too wish I would have done this much sooner. Best of luck to you.

Ex-Friend Keeps Writing Negatively About Me on Different Blogs and Web Sites
L-in-NJ replied to Sharon C.'s topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
As everyone has already said she has some serous issues and it's better that you find out now then look to her for support after your surgery and she abandons you. You don't need that kind of person in your life. Her exit from your like will leave an opening for just the right person to come along and be a true friend. Good luck to you. -

Is anyone over 400lbs that has been sleeved
L-in-NJ replied to angie0187's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I was sleeved 12/4/2013. I started my process at 407. Surgery weight was 392. I'm now down to 307. Still a ways to go but you can see progress. -
I worked overnights and used to use Wawa all the time. The have the most variety. You should try to pack your meals in advance and avoid eating out all together but that doesn't happen always. Trust I know lol. Worst case go with Wawa in a bind.

Good Lactose Free Protein Shakes?
L-in-NJ replied to lapnicky's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
GNC Lean Shakes are Lactose free. They taste pretty good. They're not too thick or they don't taste chalky. -
I tested positive also. When I went back for my 2 week check up my surgeon started me on antibiotics. I was fine. It didn't hinder my weight loss at all.

Hello fellow Jersey Sleevers. I'm from Middlesex County but now live in Burlington County. I was sleeved in December in Philly.

Were you prescribed any type of meds for heartburn or acid? Acid can feel like hunger. When I don't take the Prevacid I was prescribed I feel like I'm hungry when I know I'm not. As soon as I take it I'm fine. Best of luck to you and hope you're feeling better soon.

Did your surgeon mean you can have anything that naturally fits thru a straw or to make it fit thru a straw? Your stomach is still healing. I was on liquids for 2 weeks after surgery. Every surgeon has their own protocols but your stomach is still not ready to digest the same way as before surgery. Potatoes might be a little too heavy for you right now. You should call you surgeon if your stomach doesn't go down within the next day.

I downloaded it for Firefox. It works great. Thanks !!

Has weight loss surgery made you rethink your career?
L-in-NJ replied to mistysj's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
It hasn't made me think about a career change but it had made me want to go after my photography more aggressively. Being heavy prevented me from getting shots that I needed to maybe get low or even try from other angles. I am still only 6 weeks out from surgery but I'm making plans for shoots for the spring and summer that I wouldn't have thought about previously. -

Why do you feel you are required to tell him? You don't really owe him an explanation about it especially if he has ridiculed you about your weight.
